Strong Like Butterfly, edited by Pauline Campos, brings the best of the popular website Girl Body Pride to the pages of your e-reader in a collection of strong and inspiring essays from women celebrating the You that You Are Right Now. Featured writers include best-selling author Lissa Rankin, novelist Therese Walsh, and writer Heather Palmquist, who wrote the essay that inspired the book's title.

This is a short collection of true-life, deeply emotional poems regarding child abuse, abandonment, neglect, a broken heart and, finally, survival.
It contains personal poetry, written over several years, that expresses the anguish and heartbreak of an unwanted, abused child, who grew up thinking that there was no such thing as family, trust or love.
